You do a LOT to make this season memorable for others. Sometimes, you just need a little something for yourself to help you get through the day...or at the end of it. Here are some simple recipes that we personally love and hope you will, too. Click the links for full recipes.

Recipe: Spiced Chai Old Fashioned
Why I love it: For over a decade my wife and I have been part of a cooking club of friends who meet together monthly to share an elaborate meal that we all prepare at home. This drink is the perfect example of something I love, but never would have discovered without the help of my friends. Plus, it tastes like Christmas! Try it with non-alcoholic whiskey for a delicious sober version.

Recipe: Best Homemade Orange Rolls
Why I love it: From the time I was a child, we always used to do cinnamon rolls every Christmas morning...like the kind you buy in the can from the store with the cream cheese frosting. One year they sent us the orange ones instead of cinnamon and while I pouted at first, it ended up being a huge hit. My kids liked them so much that we changed the tradition and I eventually started making them from scratch, because they're AWESOME.

Recipe: HERSHEY'S Best Brownies
Why I love it: Every year for the holiday season, my kitchen becomes a bakery for multiple sweets and goodies so I can send them to friends and family. I found this brownie recipe years ago for a middle school assignment and it never left the baking rotation once people got a taste of it. The brownies are soft and sweet, and the frosting is absolutely incredible (something my family likes to grab a spoonful of when I make it). Add this with some hot chocolate, and this is the perfect holiday treat!
